Very Good Product

from Philadelphia, PA
The product is very good if you know what it is used for and how to use it. I bought this for montages from my Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 and it works fantastically. If you are looking for a good capture card for these types of activities then i really recommend this. I disagree with the reviews that say its hard to set up... while there isnt much directions its pretty straight forward, and if you get stuck there is Youtube to help you out or google.
What's great about it: Easy to use, Studio 12 is a great feature.
What's not so great: A little confusing to set up for those without knowledge, there are some great videos on youtube to teach you how to.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best capture card for $65

for a $65 capture card, i thought this was worth it.
Pros: good price, good audio/video quality (if you find good settings), simple installation and use.
Cons: lags computer
overall, this is a very nice piece of technology, although it lags up my computer just a bit, it gets the job done.
What's great about it: good price, excellent video/sound quality if you play around with the settings.
What's not so great: pinnicle studio 12 takes up the whole computer, lags my computer a lot
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got the pinnacle dazzle dvd recorder today specificly to make gaming videos, i was incredibly dissapointed to find that the pinnacle program was incredibly difficult to use, did not come with directions and the dazzle doesnt even record my audio! I was recording with it using windows movie maker, and it was only recording video (barely)
What's great about it: At least it records video (barely)..
What's not so great: doesnt record audio, and tends to lag alot
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The most frustrating piece of software I've ever used. The menus kept giving me errors when I tried to edit them, stating I needed to upgrade to use multiple menus when I was only using a single menu. Tech support kept telling me I couldn't use multiple menus. I got it escalated, then the next level said the same thing until I finally got him to realize I was doing a single menu. Also, had issues with menu links switching around after you tested and made sure they were right. You'd find out after burning the disk and had to throw it away. Then the freezing and skipping of certain scenes was an issue, and also some menu items wouldn't go to the chapter, it would lock up the disk, then go back to the menu. They suggested trying the version 14 trial. Tried that and the menus were ok, but the skipping and freezing was the same. They finally agreed to give a refund. That was the only good thing, however, I pay the postage to ship it back, and it doesn't help with the approximately 15 DVD's I wasted. This was Studio 12 loaded on Vista Ultimate 64 Bit.
What's great about it: Installation went smooth
What's not so great: Menu creation errors, scenes skip and freeze, disks no good after buring
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It never worked well. During the short time it worked at all, it frequently would stop responding to any commands and would lose the signal. Finally, it no longer worked at all. It is a P-O_S!
What's great about it: none
What's not so great: non-responsive most of the time
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
